|
I turn around and suddenly there's a danger |
|
Yet another close call that |
|
I couldn't quite see |
|
And I will admit that |
|
I am no stranger |
|
To such a very similar controversy |
|
It seems that |
|
I lack a sense of self-preservation |
|
Along with an abundance of a need for a thrill |
|
And that could make the deadliest of combinations |
|
If I don't keep totally and quietly still |
|
But tonight |
|
I've got to move |
|
Ain't got a thing to prove |
|
Besides, when you've lasted this long |
|
What could possibly go wrong |
|
Bartender won't you pour me a gin or a vodka |
|
Deal me up bump or some x or some tea |
|
Bet it all on black so if it's red |
|
I get nada |
|
And I'll buy the pleasure of her company |
|
But tonight |
|
I've got to move |
|
Ain't got a thing to prove |
|
Besides, when you've lasted this long |
|
What could possibly go wrong |
|
So if you're crossing the street you be careful |
|
If it's cold and flu season you run and you hide |
|
Do what your mom or boss or doctor all tell you |
|
And if you're in school or prison just open wide |
|
But tonight |
|
I've got to move |
|
Ain't got a thing to prove |
|
Besides, when you've lasted this long |
|
What could possibly go wrong |
